Serving and Sharing
Ellen Marie F., age 10, Oregon
My school had a program where you could take money to school and buy snacks for recess. There was a new girl in my class who didn’t know this. My friends and I bought snacks and she didn’t because she didn’t have any money. She was very sad and started crying. When I bought my snack I got a dollar in change. I gave it to the girl. She stopped crying and bought a snack. Then we all went and ate our snacks under a tree and had a good time talking.
